Description
We are still accepting applications for the Curriculum Support Program for non US-based academics for the academic year 2010/2011. Submit your CV and
cover letter by June 4 to apply!

ICNC has launched a special curriculum support program to promote development of seminars on civil resistance in non-US based academic institutions, preferably in recently established democracies and developing countries. ICNC is looking for academics interested in studying, researching and teaching civil resistance, its tactical effects and strategic impact on the problems it strives to address, and its long-term influence on rights, institutions, culture and civil society.

The Curriculum Support Program will include travel and lodging expenses for instructors to attend an academic training workshop prior to teaching a seminar on civil resistance. The academic workshop for the 2010 participants will be held in Istanbul, Turkey between July 26-28, 2010.

Those interested in applying for the ICNC Curriculum Support Program should send the following documents:
1. Curriculum Vitae
2. Statement of Purpose that will include, among others, information on interest, research or teaching experience relevant to broadly defined subjects of civic engagement, social mobilization, civil resistance and nonviolent action; at which academic institution/department the seminar will be offered and in which semester; how many credits will be awarded if any; how many participants are expected to enroll; evaluation methods.

The requested documents and inquiries should be directed to: academicinitiative@nonviolent-conflict.org
